ANYONE CAN GET GOOD GRADES

ABOUT

Why do engineering students struggle so much? Why is the average GPA only 2.9? And why are nearly half of all students failing to graduate? Is the course material just too complex? Are half of all students just not smart enough? In Becoming an Engineer, Jake Ryland shows that the majority of student’s struggle does not stem from course curriculum or student aptitude, but in the seven crucial areas that matter most.

1) Motivation

2) Self-discipline

3) Time creation and management

4) Sustainable lifestyle and schedule

5) Efficiency in everything

6) Studying and effective learning

7) Exam performance

​

Jake Ryland uses his own experiences as a struggling engineering student to guide the reader through the research-backed strategies he successfully implemented that took his GPA from a 2.0 to a 4.0 and ultimately lead to a master’s degree in mechanical engineering. He demonstrates how anyone with enough desire can succeed in engineering school as long as the seven crucial areas are properly addressed. Becoming an Engineer is the much-needed roadmap for success in engineering and STEM school. It is filled with common sense and easily implemented ideas that show how anyone can succeed in this arena. The global need for motivated engineers and problem solvers has never been stronger. You CAN become an engineer and this book will show you how.
